How Does Adam Sandler Give Himself to Great Directors?

Adam Sandler says you give yourself to them because you know they're great: you read the script, you don't want to let them down, and you jump into their world. He's always more at ease making comedies, where everyone tries to come up with the best jokes, but he calls the dramatic work awesome and just different. Instead of coming up with a joke in the trailer, you're getting yourself into a mood.
